Asteroid Family Associations of Active Asteroids [PDF]
The Astronomical Journal, 2018 Abstract We report on the results of a systematic search for associated asteroid families for all active asteroids known to date. We find that 10 out of 12 main-belt comets (MBCs) and five out of seven disrupted asteroids are linked with known or candidate families, rates that have ∼0.1% and ∼6% probabilities, respectively, of occurring ...

, 2015 Asteroids and comets are remnants from the era of Solar System formation over 4.5 billion years ago, and therefore allow us to address two fundamental questions in astronomy: what was the nature of our protoplanetary disk, and how did the process of planetary accretion occur?

Nature, 2009 The production of terrestrial andesites in subduction zones is well established. Day et al. describe two examples of meteorites (GRA 06128 and GRA 06129) that they claim to represent "an entirely new mode of generation of andesite crust compositions" on asteroids; this suggestion has wide implications for the generation of andesitic planetary crusts in

, 2015 Asteroid photometry has three major applications: providing clues about asteroid surface physical properties and compositions, facilitating photometric corrections, and helping design and plan ground-based and spacecraft observations. The most significant advances in asteroid photometry in the past decade were driven by spacecraft observations that ...

Planetary defense with the Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) mission and prospects
Nature Communications, 2023 NASA’s Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) mission intentionally impacted the asteroid Dimorphos on September 26, 2022, and this kinetic impact changed Dimorphos’ orbit around its binary companion Didymos.

Short-Term Consequences of Asteroid Impacts into the Ocean: A Portuguese Case Study
Universe, 2022 Asteroid impacts are a proven global threat, meaning that any location on Earth might be a subject to their consequences. Such collisions are not likely in any person’s lifetime, but their aftermath could be catastrophic.
